we have a correspondent live in riyadh. is there any word that saudi arabia will consider suspending the airstrikes to allow humanitarian relief? i can't yeah, i think it will depend on what kind of truce or pause the united states will ask for. to stop the campaign now when the houthis have been able to shell saudi cities and inflict damage in civilian areas i think it's not likely, but the saudis have already talked about readiness to create safe zones inside yemen places where the humanitarian relief can be dropped or shipped and then distributed, but that's a tricky question there because they have to actually protect those distribution points. they have to be able to put troops on the ground for that purpose, and there is no clear explanation right now from the saudis how they are going to do that considering that the houthis and the their supporters allies of the former president ali abdullah saleh still in control in many areas in yemen including parts of aden and of course completely in sanna and many other places.
